Carrier, Pirates Sink Cardinals Again in Game 2
The Pittsburgh Pirates moved to within one game of the League Championship Series today, downing the visiting St. Louis Cardinals at PNC Park by a score of 9-1. Pirates right fielder Lorenzo Carrier did some major damage. He slugged 2 home runs, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 4. The win gives the Pirates a 2-0 advantage in the best-of-5 Divisional Series Round.

Pittsburgh second baseman Maximo Acosta staked his team to an early lead in the bottom of the second inning, when he drew a walk, driving in 1 run with the bases loaded.

"We maximized our offense today," said Pittsburgh skipper Matt Kata. "That makes everyone's life easier."

Game 3 is scheduled for Tuesday at Busch Stadium in St. Louis.
